With the Bizer map on the SD card, it just shows up when you are on the lake. There is nothing to do.

It works well on my 441s! The only 'issue' or glitch that I have is that the Bizer data doesn't show up at some extreme zoom out levels. It's not a big problem as you wouldn't use such a zoom out for navigating, but the lake sort of disapppears as you zoom out until you get past that particular zoom level, then on the next zoom level it sort of shows a fuzzy version of the lake as it uses the world map.

Since you have a 431s, and it includes inland lakes, I'm not sure how you would choose between your units built in data and the Bizer chip.

Are you anywhere near Smith Cove? I suppose we could try it and see if you were close.
